The Bachmann 2-6-2 and 0-6-0 locomotives only have electrical pickups on the drivers, and some of the drivers have traction tires which reduces the amount of pickup even more. <br /> Clean wheels and track are a must for smooth operation as Crandell mentioned. <br /> I installed wipers on the tender trucks of one of my Bachmann 0-6-0. Quite an improvement. <br /> Here's a link to how the wipers were made. <br />http://2guyzandsumtrains.com/Content/pa=showpage/pid=5.html <br /> <br /> This is how I improved the N scale version. <br />http://2guyzandsumtrains.com/Content/pa=showpage/pid=22.html
